Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus that characterized by insulin resistance and it is a risk of many diseases the impact genetic factors on well documented. Vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms have been linked to T2DM. In this study, we analyzed relation between TaqI ApaI VDR T2DM subjects using PCR-RFLP method in Kurdish patients.

The rates of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) continue to parallel the rising rates of obesity in the United States, increasingly affecting adolescents as well as adults. Hippocampal and frontal lobe reductions have been found in older adults with type 2 diabetes, and we sought to ascertain if these brain alterations were also present in obese adolescents with T2DM. In a cross-sectional study we compared...

Background: Evidence suggests that mobile phone health (mHealth) programs may improve healthy behaviours and clinical outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, data on mHealth dietary behaviour is scarce low-and-middle-income countries. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of a text messaging program habits T2DM.

OBJECTIVE To forecast the number of U.S. individuals aged <20 years with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) or type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) through 2050, accounting for changing demography and diabetes incidence. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We used Markov modeling framework to generate yearly forecasts of the number of individuals in each of three states (diabetes, no diabetes, and death). We...

Studies that investigated an association between asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) and glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have given discordant results. The aim of this study was to determine and compare serum ADMA concentration in patients with T2DM and healthy controls, and to assess correlation between ADMA and HbA1c in patients with T2DM. Serum ADMA concentrati...

Diabetes is a chronic disease and major problem of morbidity and mortality in developing countries. The International Diabetes Federation estimates that 285 million people around the world have diabetes. This total is expected to rise to 438 million within 20 years. Type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is the most common type of diabetes and accounts for 90-95% of all diabetes. Detection of T2DM fro...

conclusions our study indicated that ace-d and vegf-g alleles can be an independent risk factor for microalbominuria in t2dm patients. results a total of 255 consecutive patients with t2dm and microalbuminuria (group a) and 235 patients with t2dm and normoalbuminuria (group b) were included in the study. in univariate analysis, the groups were statistically similar for all variables, except for...
